Hair Care Tip for Dry & Frizzy Hair - BY BP

My hair care tip is for dry and frizzy hair and only has one ingredient: Olive Oil. I use olive oil for my skin (as a lotion), lips (natural balm), hair (leave-in conditioner), feet (during scrubs with sugar and honey), food (salad dressing with lemon and garlic)--just about everything. Olive oil softens the hair, makes hair shiny, and isn't greasy when used in moderate amounts. Best of all it can keep hair moisturized for many days. Simply apply a moderate amount of olive oil to towel dried hair or slightly damp hair (works on dry hair as well, but make certain hair is clean). Take care not to use too much oil. Work through hair, paying special attention to the ends. Style hair as usual. Wear a silk cap at night to keep hair from drying or breaking due to cotton pillowcases. I don't wash the olive oil out for several days as other tips require because I like the shine it gives my hair. If you find that your hair has become too greasy or has a smell to it after leaving the olive oil on your hair for some time, wash out with your regular shampoo--it still makes your hair soft!

Hair Care & Frizzies - BY TESS J

Greetings, I thank you for your updates and informationals. I find them interesting and informative and they also give me the updates on the newest trends and needs for the consumer. Since I formulate and sell bath, body and essentials --- as well as use them myself, I find this especially helpful. I myself have naturally curly hair and I color treat it as well. I live in a warm climate aka Florida --- so I related very much to your recent article. I found that I personally on a small or smaller than a national company, can't formulate and sell a product that is already available that fulfills the needs of "people like us" with curly and or color treated hair. That suffers from frizzing due to humidity or whatever the cause. It is sold by top cosmetic companies at a horrendous price and can be purchased with the exact same ingredients in the supermarket for mere pennies a day by Paul Freida. Frizz-ease Hair Serum. I have no connection to this company whatsoever. I only thought to share with you a product that costs about $5 and lasts 6-8 weeks for me. I have long past shoulder length hair so someone with shorter hair would have a longer supply. 3-5 pumps which equates to less than a dime size portion. Controls frizzies, locks in moisture and gives you silky, soft, shiney hair. It's the perfect finishing touch to any morning toilet, whether you are washing your hair or merely refreshing it. I suffer from no dryness, oily-ness, frizzies, split ends and found whether I use suave essentials for .89 cents a bottle or Paul mitchell, the end result is the same. Tanglefree combing and worry free hair. I hope this helps in some small way --- to a fellow curly-hair person!!!!
